BIEN
BIOGRAPHY
1993年東京都生まれ。アニメーション表現や文字、記号などの輪郭に着目し、その形状や意味を解体/再構築する抽象的な平面表現をはじめ、近年では映像、彫刻、インストラクション、インスタレーションなどメディアを横断しながら表象に問いかける作品を発表する。また多様なカルチャーの文脈を取り入れたアプローチもBIENの表現の特徴である。
Born in Tokyo in 1993. BIEN’s artistic practice revolves around animation, focusing on the outlines of characters, symbols, and other elements. He deconstructs and reconstructs the shapes and meanings, creating abstract works. In recent years, his artistic expression has expanded across various media, including video, sculpture, instruction, and installation, while constantly questioning the notions of representation. Additionally, BIEN’s artistic approach often incorporates diverse cultural contexts, which has become a distinctive characteristic of his expression.
